Digital film festival starts
Ludhiana, February 16 The good news is that the council, for the first ever time, is holding a digital film festival in the city. “These films, besides providing a platform to students of film-making and aspirants in the fields, are based on topics that are really thought provoking. The films being screened here have been selected from over 400 entries that were received not only from India but from various other countries, including Sri Lanka and also UK,” disclosed Mr Naveen Talwar, who procured the films. He revealed that jury members included renowned names like actors Tabu and Naseeruddin Shah. The first day of the week-long festival, that took off yesterday evening at Dumra Auditorium at the Dayanand Medical College and Hospital (DMCH), was witness to some extremely sensitive and thought provoking films like Time Bomb, Gajra and The boy who wanted to grow, among others. Mr Talwar revealed that films on issues like homosexuality and Gujarat violence would be screened in the coming days. “One is amazed at the creativity of the film-makers who have easily managed to convey their thoughts in time as short as 10 seconds,” said Kranti, one of the spectators. She said it was also very encouraging to see films, the making of which did not require huge amounts of money. “These are the films which can be shot even sitting at home. If one has ideas and is creative and has a computer and a digital camera, all one would need is initiative. Moreover, when one gets a platform like this where such films are screened, talent would not go unnoticed,” Mr Talwar said.
